Full description

The outcomes will be incident VTE and all-cause death, assessed through February 28, 2021. The primary analysis will describe the rate of post-Covid-19 VTE after index diagnosis. A second analysis will compare the risk of VTE in hospitalized patients with Covid-19 compared with matched hospitalized controls without Covid-19.
